hi i posted some stuff about 3weeks ago

I was diagnosed with hashimoto's 8 months ago and am on 35 micograms of

levothyroxine. My TSH is now at 2.6

The problem is that i am feeling sicker and sicker gradually. My symptoms are

not going away.

I am so tired that i cannot wake up in the mornings i have to stay in bed until

about 1030am because i just cant get up no matter how early i go to bed.

I am always tired, i have no energy and everything is an effort to do. I work

part time because i cannot handdle a full time job since i take naps after my 4

hours of work. So i basically have no life.

I use to go to the gym 6 days a week 2 hours a day. Now i cant make it up the

hill to my work because im so exauhsted and my body feels so heavy

when i get too tired i have difficulty breathing because even that is an effort.

I will start to dehydrate at night as from about 7pm till morning. I will drink

all night long waking up at night to drink and use the toilet. ill sometimes

wake up really hungery too and have to eat cakes and biscuits to feel better and

go back to sleep. I will also get low grade fever and wake up with cold sweat

all over. also mouth ulcers and cracked lips with very dry mouth and throat.

my throat has been swollen for almost 2 months now, but it doesnt hurt it just

makes me feel like im choaking and makes breathing uncomfotable when i lie in

certain positions.

i use to wiegh 58kilos and now suddenly i wieght 68kilos ive never weighed so

much su suddenly. i eat alot because if i dont i feel more tired and ill feel

faint so ill nibble on chocolate and cakes all day. though the chocolate makes

me feel better for about 15 minutes and then again i feel very tired and faint.

i cant take the night fevers, extreme thirst, mouth ulcers and tiredness

anymore. ill loose my job (whats left of it) if this carries on.

my doctor suspects a pituitary problem and has ordered some blood tests and a 24

hour urine test.

guys what is wrong with me??? please i need advice..... i cant take it anymore

its going to be summer soon and the sun will be out, i want to enjoy my youth

and go the the beach i dont want to sleep anymore somebody has to help me

any ideas on what may be wrong?????? pituitary??? adrenals?? hashimotos???
